If kits are in stock, please allow 3-7 business days for your order to process before shipping. **  

This kit is designed to be a bolt-in kit and is made to adapt a 1989-2002 12 & 24 valve Cummins 6BT engine (with stock oil pan) into a 1973-1987 Chevrolet or GMC 4wd pickup trucks and 1973-1991 4wd Blazers, Suburbans, and Crew Cabs. Basically, to install this kit, you just need to remove the factory engine crossmember, notch the front factory frame sway bar crossmember, drill some holes, and bolt the new engine crossmember, front frame brace/ notch plate, and motor mounts in place. The motor mounts bolt straight to the factory frame motor mount brackets and straight to the engine block with slotted holes to give you some adjustment along with using 2” round polyurethane bushings. So, unless you buy the DIY kit, there is no welding required to install this kit. We offer two version of this kit, Welded, or Do It Yourself (DIY). The Welded kit comes fully welded ready to install with all the necessary hardware included. The DIY kit is the same as the Welded kit but for those who wish to save a few bucks and weld the kit together themselves. The DIY kit includes a few extra pieces including the same jig plate we use for welding the engine crossmember together.

This kit is made from laser cut 1/4″ steel. DIY kit requires you clean a very small amount of slag left over from the laser. 4 inch minimum suspension lift required to for front axle clearance. This kit does not require a body lift but may or may not require slight transmission tunnel modification based on what transmission/ transfer case combo you use. At this time, we do not offer any transmission crossmembers. Engine fan clearances are based on what radiator/ intercooler combo you use. Will clear mechanical fan. Exhaust down pipe clearance is based on what exhaust manifold/ turbo combo you use. Will require a high mount AC bracket if you wish to run an air conditioning pump. Will not fit 2wd model trucks (unless converting to 4wd) and 1988-1991 4wd IFS models. Please review attached install instructions to help answer any questions you might have.
